That rules out Multiplay then...

Any suggestions please?

Ones I am already aware of are Gamingdeluxe and Roxx servers.

Ideally, we would have a dedi but it would be too much for our needs at this time.

Among other things, we need an Arma 3 server so really need good servers.
 
For me I would just get myself a kimsufi or a soyoustart and just host it myself. If you're not up for learning Linux you could always shell out the extra for the windows license.

Have you used them?

My understanding is that they are far from reliable as in when things go wrong, not the easiest to deal with?

For what we need at the moment, will cost less using seperate game servers and using a GPS means less hassle and we do not have the resources at the present time to devote to a dedi.

For a good, reliable dedi with good spec, I expect to pay around £80 a month (Plenty of RAM, SSD etc) and even that is low end.

Well before I moved hosting back into my flat when I got fibre, I was running a kimsufi which had a i7 3770K, 16 GB RAM, 250 GB RAID1 SSD and a 100/100 connection for about £35/m.

I still run one of the tiny little atom servers of theirs for other things and that costs £5.99, but if I wanted to could probably run /something/ on it, it'd be a bit dodgy though haha. I've never had an issue with them, my atom box actually died about 3 months ago and they just quietly swapped it all out and moved my disks for me and I was back in 20 minutes.

EDIT: I was hosting Minecraft, TF2, CS:S, Space Engineers, Mumble and a TS3 server all at once with the £35/m one and it was flawless the entire time. The only people that complained where 3 guys that all lived in the same house together, using the same connection, having the same lag at the same time. Clearly it was my server /s

There are 1-2 reliable providers I've used in the past where a middle spec quad core, 250GB SSD and 4-16GB of RAM and 100Mbit connection (depending how much you want to put on setup fees and how much pay monthly) can be had for a lot less than £80/m.

Bit out of touch with the UK GSP market but it used to be that most were either pretty similar in quality to multiplay or a LOT worse.
 
Back in the days of DayZ just starting we used Gamingdeluxe and their support was very helpful. Ended up the clan buying a Dell dedi server and getting Gamingdeluxe to host it on site. (You could arrange to go to their datacentre and install it yourself)

I like Gaming Deluxe and will consider going with them for GSP features if not going with a dedi.
 
Can you not just get a dedicated server from one of them and then stick VMware vSphere on it.

http://www.vmware.com/uk/products/vsphere-hypervisor

Then you could stick as many different servers on the box as you have resource for and even have a dedicated MySQL. Just use a Linux Distribution with MariaDB or install the Windows version of MariaDB.

Most of the previously mentioned hosts allow you to select VMware Hypervisor from the pre-compiled list of builds.
